Grateful to be an Episcopalian. Encouraged by Bishop Budde’s faithful leadership, our parish in Washington, DC takes seriously our unintentional complicity in systemic racism and our responsibility to counter racial injustice.

Trump is very bold when it comes to propaganda and lies. From the BBC--"Fact-checking Trump's Oval Office confrontation with Ramaphosa": https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce9vxve994ro

This administration uses race as a weapon. We all need to continue to be well-informed truth tellers to our families, friends and communities.

Yes, Bp Budde and Bp Sean speaking truth to power. The former here in Paris several weeks ago, and the latter will be in Munich on Pentecost. We will be able to thank him personally.

Religion continues to be the the most pervasive promoter of hate throughout the world. Satan's mission is to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10) and religion is his most effective tool. Authentic followers of Jesus must resist the enemy and he will flee! (James 4:7) 1 Peter 5:8-9 instructs us to "8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings." We are empowered to resist and destroy the works of the enemy in the Mighty Name of Jesus!
